Command Explanations

SHARED=yes: This parameter
enables building of shared library instead of static one.

ZLIB=no: This option prevents
compression of the pci.ids file.

Configuring PCI Utils

The pci.ids data file is constantly
being updated. To get a current version of this file, run
update-pciids as the
root user. This program requires
the Which-2.21 script or program to
find cURL-7.43.0, Lynx-2.8.8rel.2
or Wget-1.16.3 which are used to download the most
current file, and then replace the existing file in /usr/share/misc.

You may wish to add an entry to root's (or any other user who has write
privilege to /usr/share/misc) crontab
to automatically update the pci.ids
file periodically.
